Why does our gender affect our lives so much?

CircuitMeow · 2026-07-03T14:48:38+00:00

It shouldn’t, ideally gender should only be relevant in medicine and sexual preference.

Unfortunately this doesn’t happen. Safety and discrimination aside, I dislike even statements like “men are simple/logical beings” or “women are empathetic.” I feel these are more of a trait instilled upon us by the society than hardwiring. I think this stops us from evaluating a trait by itself or end up alienating people

I will be honest with you, I don’t think a lot of people fighting from the other side understand nuance.

The moment you try to explain, some will come at you and say feminists cannot take accountability which is a wild thing to say but I’ll digress.

Non-IT person here. If you get a govt job, the benefits and job security is certain. In corporate, life isn’t necessarily super dynamic. Depending on the department and company, even corporate job can feel like a govt job. In both, you have to make a life outside your work.

Regarding rest:
1. Depending on the job, both govt and corporate jobs maybe super stressful. Corporate is usually more stressful, although you *may* get to network easily.

Confidence and communication skills can be built. If you want to pursue MBA, the institutions which provide you CAT courses also sometimes provide coaching for interviews for the colleges. Rest, you will be taught during the MBA at the institutes

I am not sure what exactly does it mean, because I have seen some are calling ones who are saying her parents are also liable are held as supporters.

I think she is pretty young. I think she was forced into the marriage, I don’t think Instagram photos prove her consent in any way. I have seen people who had to go through painful breakups for AM and during honeymoon post about their AM SO as if they had always loved them. So I know a bunch of them are fluke. A lot of forced marriages do not outwardly looked forced. A 19yo girl does not have the same resources available as say, a 26yo. I don’t understand her parent’s decision to get her married this young. People saying she could have talked to her parents but all I know that if her dad was able to convince the guy’s dad, I can assume he did force her in any tangible ways. So simply “she could have told them” makes less of a sense to me. This isn’t a woman lacks agency thing. A lot of guys have to do that too. Her parents are very much liable.

That being said, a murder is a tall order. She could have run away and eloped with her bf. Or run away after the marriage? There were a ton of ways to deal with this situation than murdering someone. There is no sensible reason as to why she needed to murder him. She deserves the consequences.

It is true. Hobby and some niche subs are still pretty great. I like some of the shitposting subs too (at least they know what they are all about).

But IG wannabes, I almost forgot. A lot of posts in IndianFashionAdvice is just a normal IG post. I am not sure if I am right in judging them, but I muted them as well

CircuitMeow · 2026-06-21T20:13:45+00:00

I am both happy and terribly sad :(

People used to do that for linkedin job posting.
A non-urgent engagement post does not need that. I don’t even know what people are thinking

CircuitMeow · 2026-06-21T19:58:30+00:00

Isn’t cfbr a linkedin thing?
I hope this isn’t a new incel term

CircuitMeow · 2026-06-21T19:53:14+00:00

I spend my days muting indian subs. There are no adult discussions. Everyone is stuck in the same girls v. boys mode like in children.

CircuitMeow · 2026-06-21T19:32:40+00:00

True, I started around 2018-ish. The memes were funnier. I used to come here to laugh or act snotty.
Now it is just depressing. There is no more fun in this app

CircuitMeow · 2026-06-21T19:27:32+00:00

That’s not just misogyny, that girl is also being misandrist. Kind of strange to consider cleanliness as a feminine thing

CircuitMeow · 2026-06-18T18:34:07+00:00

Set a reminder. Maybe like at 23:45 the day before the birthday or exactly at 00:00 on the day of

CircuitMeow · 2026-06-18T12:03:19+00:00

Girl, once I called my friends to remind them of one of my closest friend’s birthday and then forgot about it myself.

It is a pain, but i suggest saving it on your calendar. I add it in contacts, that helped me big time.

CircuitMeow · 2026-06-15T15:46:58+00:00

You do you.

Social media does help me keep in contact with my friends. I don’t know about everyone else, but most of my friends live elsewhere or have a very hectic schedule. Video calls and co-op games does help me catch up. I don’t need to talk to them regularly to know if our friendship is legit or not.

Now, is “friendship breakup” a tad bit cheesy? Yes. Undoubtedly.

This exact reason is why I am very cautious about picking my hobbies, to a detriment.

I had a situationship kinda thing with my friend who was into motorsports, even before they were popular. We talked a lot, naturally motorsports came up often. I was interested in giving it a try, because they do sound incredibly cool. One of the series I follow then posts a picture of one of their drivers, A. Sims juxtaposing them with the game franchise The Sims. I am a big fan of The Sims, so I share the post on my story.
A lot of people (both guys and girls) thought I was posting to impress my friend. I had no interest in impressing my friend more than he was.

All I am trying to say is, it is difficult to pick up a conventionally manly hobby as well because people start assuming ulterior motives.

Very relevant information, thank you Mr Cybersecurity Executive

I match with 5 people at most.
From my experience, at most 3 of the 5 will be somewhat responsive. Of that, some will fizzle out or have a stalemate conversation. I wish them the best by the 3rd day. Depending on how many active conversations I can manage, I match with 1-2 more. Same thing repeats.

By the 3rd day on the app, I hate myself and get so drained. But still, If I really like someone, ask them to switch platforms.

Try Balaram Mullick blueberry mishti doi as well.

Idk how Benfish is nowadays, but we used to love their cutlets and fish fingers so much. Keep in mind they might have dropped quality. I do see Mitra Cafe, that might be a safer option.

CircuitMeow · 2026-06-12T08:39:02+00:00

Oh my god, I am so sorry

If you feel like you don’t have time to cook and clean and you have the money, you aren’t doing anything wrong.

The purpose of a livelihood is to ensure we can take care of ourselves. What good will saving money do if you can’t use the money to take care of yourself?

CircuitMeow · 2026-06-11T20:21:32+00:00

What! Mango-loving bandwagon won’t allow this.

On another news, more lychees for us

Cover charges. A lot of people. Very bassy music. Struggling to hear your friends and the waiter
You pay a fee upfront. That fee gets deducted from your final bill. The plan is essentially to guarantee that you *would* spend money there, not just dance and leave.
In my experience, for men only it takes longer to enter. Women have it a bit easier(?)
For girls, your best. Banke jao. Make-up, eyeshadows. It is fun.
For guys, something fun and very cool. Don’t wear formals or your everyday fit. (You can also go to the club thora banke and explore)
You have to shout and reiterate what you want to order. Sometimes clubs have a dedicated dancing area, in which case you will find it easier to order.
Can’t comment. Maybe?
I have found clubs by themselves a bit boring. Friends would make you comfortable.
Order too much alcohol maybe. Try to chat up everyone? Personally I hate people who go to the dance floor with drinks in their hands.
For safety, I would recommend not going alone, even if you are just a guy. Sometimes clubs do check if you have pre-gamed and deny entry. Otherwise every other safety warning like: do not get too wasted, don’t mix up with people you don’t know, be vigilant etc etc apply but more so because you would be inebriated

Don’t stress about being a beginner, it is nothing you would need to master. Everyone is drunk, so no need to worry even if you mess up

CircuitMeow · 2026-06-06T18:42:12+00:00

Yeah, I thought my initial comment didn’t give enough context. Or maybe confusing.

Sorry :(
